USA made patriotic knives

LibertyKeeper · Post by **LibertyKeeper** » Sun Oct 31, 2021 10:25 pm

I made a wooden wall display for my small collection of USA-made knives with a patriotic theme... Some from Buck, Case, ZT, Pro-Tech, Kershaw, Guardian Tactical and an old Schrade. And a custom made from Ken Hall. Happy how it all turned out.

Welcome to AAPK. Glad to have you.

That's a very clever use of a thread spool holder. I like it a lot, as I do your newest acquisition. Gonna have to hunt that one down.

Are you turning this thread into a welcome mat for all patriotic knives or is it exclusively for your knives? Just curious.

Yep- I took a spool thread holder (a stand) apart and affixed each row of spindles on the display board I made)

And... Let's do it! Why not show off other patriotic usa-made knives on this thread! I can drool over some, I'm sure, that other members here have!

Wow, that was fast Jim!

From 7:37 A.M. when you posted the SMKW shots, to 1:37 P.M. with knife in-hand, exactly 6 hours! I think your DIY display looks teriffic too! This is destined to be an active thread, thanks for starting it!

Third 'patriotic knife' (this one just an old military/camp multitool with 'US' stamped on front) I received today came in the mail from an eBay seller

Was supposed to be a Camillus .... Was listed as such in the ebay listing title and description .... But is actually a Queens Cutlery version (see tang stamp)

Oh well... It was the one shown in the pictures with Q tang stamp... Seller must have made a mistake and so did I... So I'll keep it (I didn't pay much)

It was made in USA... In 1986

Good used shape, good snap on all tools and blade
